UAB opens up “Donorville” to help bring in blood donations

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — Between storms, beach vacations, and lazy days on the lake, the upcoming summer means a high demand for blood donations. This week a corner of the UAB campus is transformed into “Donorville”.

You’ll find Jimmy Buffet music and non-alcoholic margaritas at the north pavilion on 18th Street and 6th Avenue North. The American Red Cross will be on hand through the 15th. Donors will receive t-shirts and be entered for a daily drawing for a $100 gift card.
